We're going to peel back the passenger side fender liner to get to the fog light bulb. The driver's side will be similar. I've got the wheel turned out. You could turn the wheel in, whichever is easier for you. You could also do this on the ground, but we've got it up in the air so you could see it better.

These are 7 millimeter bolts. Once you get these loose, you can just use your fingers to pull them out. Using a flat bladed screwdriver or a trim clip pulling tool, and we're going to remove these barbed clips. Just pop those out. Fold the wheel liner up and out of your way.

The connector for it is on the top here. To undo the connector, we're going to squeeze the lock, pull it out. To undo the bulb it has two tabs on top and the bottom. We're going to squeeze those together. Pull it out and change your bulb.

When you go to reinstall it, it has key ways. There's one on one side and two on the other side, and they match the key ways there on the back of the fog light housing. There's one on this side and two on this side. So you want to make sure, when you go to put it in, you're lining those key ways up, or else it won't click in. The bulb is seated, and now you reconnect the connector, and your bulb is replaced.

Time to reinstall the splash shield. So those barbed clips are going to go in first, just push those in. Take your 7 millimeter bolts. In this video we started on the passenger side and then we moved to the driver side, but the passenger was easier, so it would be similar. Switch to my ratchet.
